If you're looking to upgrade your ride's dashboard without going overboard, check out the VHX-1014-S-B from Dakota Digital. This dual round gauge setup is a classic design that fits right in with just about any vehicle theme. It’s got that timeless look, but trust me, it’s packed with modern tech that makes it stand out.

First off, the gauge housings are made from solid 6061 aluminum and come with a slick chrome finish that really pops. The cutout diameter is 5 inches, and it’s got a depth of 1.85 inches, so it should fit nicely in most standard gauge openings without a hassle.

What really sets this system apart are the details. You get fully lit needles and backlit faces, plus a crisp LCD message center that makes it easy to read everything at a glance. Inside, you’ll find micro-controlled precision stepper motors and solid-state sensors, which means you’re getting top-notch accuracy—no more guessing if your oil pressure or water temp is where it should be.

Here’s a quick rundown of what you can expect:

• Speedometer: 0 - 160 MPH (or 0-255 km/h if you prefer metric)
• Tachometer: 0-8,000 RPM
• Oil Pressure: 0-80 psi
• Water Temperature: 100-260°F (or 40-120°C for the metric version)
• Fuel Level: E, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, F
• Voltmeter: 9-17 VDC

And it doesn’t stop there. You’ve got features like a million-mile odometer, dual trip meters, and even a clock. If you’re into performance, the system tracks your 0-60 times and quarter-mile stats, which is pretty cool for those of us who like to push our limits.

Indicator lights are comprehensive too—everything from turn signals to check engine warnings are included, so you’ll always know what’s going on with your ride. Plus, there’s a neat feature where each analog gauge has a red LED indicator for quick warnings, except for the speedometer.

Customization is where this gauge system really shines. You can choose from over 30 color options for the needles, sweeps, and digital displays. Daytime and nighttime brightness are adjustable, and if you want to take it a step further, you can add a rotary control for on-the-fly adjustments. There are also 12 factory preset color themes that let you quickly set up a cohesive look, or you can go all out and pick your own colors.

The full LED backlighting is another highlight. It provides a sharp contrast that makes everything easy to see, day or night. Whether you’re aiming for a factory look or something a bit more flashy, the VHX Series has you covered.

Just a heads up, if you decide to grab this gauge system, expect it to take about 12-16 weeks for delivery. But trust me, it’ll be worth the wait once you get it installed and see how it transforms your dashboard.
